Since 2006, PDF has given away more than a half a million dollars in cash grants and in-kind product donations to canine service organizations nationwide. The mission of the Planet Dog Foundation is to promote and celebrate programs in which dogs serve and support their best friends. Funded in part by the sale of Planet Dog’s premier line of dog products, the program provides cash grants, in-kind product donations and other support to programs in Maine and across the country that support dogs as they support people. PDF sponsors fundraisers at the local level to help raise money and awareness for area organizations that celebrate and strengthen the bond between dogs and people while raising local visibility and support for community programs.
